@@kdee868 that's my thoughts exactly! With all the improvements with technology there is really no excuse for a game to not be better in every way! Even a game in Alpha should be as good as a 10 yr old game! 😂
The transitions between different animations are probably the biggest skate 3 advantage. You can make a line in Skate 3 look real. But yeah, thats just tripple A vs Indie.
@@2000Doriyas people dont really know or understand the amount of work that was put on skate series, there is some videos that explain how much of a tech revolution that was and how hard it was for the devs. But they did an amazing job
For me Skater XL still looks too stiff and awkward I just don't see the "flow" which is why I'm still playing Skate 3 A LOT. The trick variation is big enough in Skate 3 for me atm (been playing EA Skate since it was first ever released) I'll get this eventually though and Session too
yeah i cant see myself spending mo ney on this game. too clunky and static. mechanics arent dynamic enough. feels like your stuck on a track . skate 3 blows this out of the water
@@const3llations_370 dont be foolish the more money they have the better they can make the game. in fact the only way to get EA to revive the skate franchise is by showing them how much money can be made from skateboarding games. personally im gonna give it a go, its still technically unfinished and gets released in july.
it will never get better . why do people think giving a group of skateboarders money is gonna make a good game? do you think any of the skate team could even do a ollie? i bet zero of them. but thats the point . you need a developer to make a game not a skateboarder, you can have the most enthusiastic skaterboarder ever, but do they know how to code? have they made a game before? now u see why this game is doomed to never be good. skate was made with an engine from 2005 this is 2020 and SkakerXL looks at least half as good as a game with 2005 engine released 2009. i cant wait for the greed to start after the game is released season passes. paid levels, paid cosmetics. mabee even skate crates lmao. and i bet the animations will still look like total shit
I agree with all your points but I think that you shouldn't bash ea skate too much as they were made from people who love skating but their funders didn't care. EA skate revolutionised the industry by being very realistic for the time, I'm sure that if black box had the creative freedom they needed we would have most of these features
Honestly the fact that skater xl exsist and costum maps for pc honestly makes it great for me sure the animations is a bit meh but I feel like skateboard games has been dry for a bit to many years
When I heard about the remakes of the Tony Hawk games a couple weeks ago I was like, "ohhh man, my youth!"...then I heard about this game, and I was like, "ohhhh man, a skate sim, a grown up game!".. stoked!
Honestly, I know they’ll improve graphics and movements down the line... My biggest concern is multiplayer and/or some type of storyline or interactive “missions.” The game feels empty just aimlessly skating after coming from Skate. If those were 100% confirmed, i’d buy the game yesterday.
avocado o I actually caved and bought it for PC. The mods pretty much add everything I want except for some time of score or missions. Multiplayer is fun too.
Damn dude this might actually slam skate 3 on its neck. If they change the stance of the skater on the board and make the pushing more realistic it’s a fat wrap gg EA.
(Ik I’m 6 months late) the reason I loved skate 3 was because of the open world and the people in it (npcs not real ppl) . If I buy Skater XL once it comes out and it has open world and actual npcs/people in it, Skate 3 is screwed.
@@saulgudino315 The best thing about this game is more the fact that anybody can make a map with the same creative control as the developers, they made it SUPER easy to add custom maps, so the open world type map is definitely possible if you make a custom one big enough! which i can guarantee the community will do eventually.. I saw some dude add in some animated birds to a map too, so AI is definitely a possibility in the future. This game absolutely blows skate 3 out the park considering its only in beta
@@djcantskate3883 sadly the typical PS4 players, so most of the people in the PS4 comment section, are spoiled idiots who only appreciate games like The Last of Us and God of War, and sometimes not even those. I wouldn't give too much on their opinion and rather check the game for myself :)
hzK CS I’m hip. I can’t wait for this to drop on PS4 I’ve been dying to play a skate game on console but I’ve been reluctant to buy an Xbox just to play skate 3. Skater XL is gonna be one of the highlights of my summer
I think Skate series is the pioneer of the realistic skateboarding game. If they were never exist, probably no other skateboarding game were made until now.
thats true like doom is the pionneer of fps and years later doom is still the greatest FPS thats why a lot of guys and girls are waiting for a Skate 4.
I hope they put a small ollie in the game. Some guy argued to me that the normal ollie is small, but I mean like something you can pop on a sidewalk and pop out of grinds. Something you can do really quick. Like a small tap... you get it, you are a skater.
It would be disappointing if skater xl didn't do things better than a 9 year old game. Skate 3 will always be a solid game its just limited and a bit out-dated. Skater xl looks a lot more like a sim so realistic skaters will enjoy it more especially as it keeps getting developed. Both games are solid and skate will always be a great series, any game that you can go back to and enjoy for how long it's been around is amazing. Edit: 9 years old
who cares about one year, if skate hadnt gone the way of the dodo after the third game, they probably wouldve iterated their system further. I mean, even the tony hawk series had a free flick control scheme in their later entries, allowing people to freely kick and flick the board mid-flight. And tony hawk was the series where you were pretty much pressing buttons to choose a trick from a list, not flicking an analog stick. All in all, it is exciting to see new games coming out, and it would be nice to see a new skate game come out.
Dekaku Ea black box got shut down, a new skate game is NEVER going to come out. Also what does the whole paragraph you wrote have anything to do with this convo lmao
Skaterxl is the best skate sim we have right now and I hope it will become one of the best sports games ever made. The potential is there they just need to deliver. I hope this game gets a full release in the next 2 years.
How does that technique work at 9:40 ? The Ollie-south at 11:21 looks almost like you could add a grab to make it a Benihana. Hope they will integrate that with the grabs ❤️
Funny Story: I picked up skatingboarding again after quitting 10 years Ago. I skated for 5 years before and couldn't figure out kickflips. After playing Skater XL, just because of how you had to flick the joystick for a kickflip, I transitioned some of the motion in real life and I'm actually starting to land them thanks to that:D.
txbur yup, and most likely a skate 4 would allow to do most things you can do in this game that you couldn’t in skate 3 since it’s been so long and now they can look at this game for ideas. Skate 4 would definitely outsell this and I know this games in early stages or whatever but it’s still been in development for a year or more idk, but still the animations look like shit.
@@txbur No it didn't. Tony Hawk has always been in many people's hearts. Skate didn't kill it. There were just 2 skateboarding games. Personally, I always liked THPS series better than the Skate series. And of course Skate 4 would outsell Session or SkaterXL cause EA is a big corporate company.. duh!?
@@dhaloh Nah. Skate 4 would oustell bc it'll be a better game, simple as that. Going to released on next gen with the original producers. Being on next gen already means better graphics and physics.
Everything was right i agree when u explaining the push and the 11/2 push. Every skater knows that when it comes to styles that putting their foot back on the board right after a push or after a few pushes may not even be the same way as far as the timing and distance coming back to the board
I have so many ea skate 3 mastery tricks and way more when you create skateparks using DLC. Tail slides dip down or balance if you use a catwalk support as a metal edge for a box made out of a DLC brick wall.. it pinches up every trick too if you place it just right.. the left and right bumpers make transition absurdly realistic.I wish I knew how to upload content and talk about it too because yeah I always scream at some of the comparison videos
Good video, Mate. Even more options on style then you covered, but a great informative video once again. From a skater perspective i cannot understand how people dont like the animations the game offers. If you want arcade, play arcade style games like thps. I cant wait for grabs and stalls to come🙌
But at the sametime cancelling the push comes in handy if your trying to set up for a trick but you character is still pushing so you miss a second and mess up
Thanks, this was really good info on SXL. I found the hardest part to get used to for me, was turning while pushing. You so want to pull hard on the left stick l/r but since it controls the foot you will often just bail. Tony hawk pro skater 1 was released the same summer I graduated high school and been so used to the 'fake' controls it took some time to rethink of my analog sticks as my legs/feet..
I didn't think I'd care too much about little things like this (moving the board up or down when on a boardslide, etc ) but I could see myself getting hooked because it's even more realistic and wouldn't end up getting as boring
What I've always thought this game needed was some sort of challenge or goal system, because right now, it's just a free-form simulator, and it can get kinda dogged after a while. Maybe a high-score meter, or a way to unlock different things like sponserships and gear, and really give you the feeling of the skater's world, instead of just a guy on a skateboard. While they've done an incredible job so far, there really needs to be more to it than this.
moral of the story skater xl will become 100x better than skate 3. remember skater xl is still a new game there working on online content and more skills
I really like your videos man. I got sessions and skater xl after watching your videos. One thing I would personally enjoy us a controller over lay on screen. I'd like to see how you are doing some of the tricks. 🤘
I love skater xl, and I also love skate 3, but one main reason skater xl isn't on the same level as skate 3 is bc skater xl has none of the missions that skate 3 has, no find the spot, speed races, 1up, hall of meat. These are all things that turn the skate 3 mechanics useful and fun because it gives you more options in regards to what you want to play. Skater xl ONLY had that first L.A. skate spot, I understand they're still in early development, but skate 3 had a whole open world map with very high levels of details. I have played skate 3 for many years and each year I find more secret spots to skate. I love the way skater xl does the skating mechanics, seriously it's incredible, the flips, the catches, the versatility, and the only thing it's missing is some sort of missions to keep you playing, like the missions skate 3 had, and more spots to skate/a bigger map. If the makers of skater xl, somehow managed to get to work with EA's large team, we could get the best of both worlds.
So cool someone is going to finally release a skateboarding game. Hopefully it is really good. It looks pretty sweet. I’m hoping they finally let us do a Darkside grind. Once a rare few game ever let us do that in game for some reason.
Didn't even know about this game until about 20 minutes ago. I was a MASSIVE fan of the Tony Hawk series, although I barely played much of the Skate games. I'll likely just go ahead and get this game now.
Just picked this up after watching your video. Never really playes the Skate series but grew up playing Tony Hawk. I love this so far. The physics is really cool and the flow is dope, until you skate into something and crumple into a heap lol. The two foot twin thumbstick controls take a little getting used to but i'm getting there. Pulling off grinds is super satisfying too. Looking forward to more content.
dont get me wrong the front foot and back foot catches and things skate didnt have are cool and all, but at this stage, skater XL is a mobile game i wouldn't want my child to play compared to skate 3. the title is more click bait than fact.
@@Charlie-ql1dg naaah they got a ugly sorta beauty to em kinda like pressure flips imo. Ya boi gonna call you out for doin them but he's just mad cause he can't make em look good hahaha
I'm curious to see where they go with this. Bought it yesterday and it feels good but I can see it getting old if they don't have some kind of bigger map and story to use all of these tricks in, along with keeping the custom maps in. This is what I bought to partially satisfy my need for skate 4, I'm sure the devs understand what the fans are hoping for
I just liked the aspect of doing whatever you want. Skate 3 wasn't just about skateboarding. The open world and people and cars made it so fun along with it's great areas to mess around on foot and on your board. While the skating is better, this still isn't a Skate 3 equivalent for me.
I understand what you're saying but you also have to remember that skate 3 is 10 years old. For its time it was revolutionary. If this game or session didn't improve and become more realistic they wouldn't even exist. I just really hope these come out for console. I just busted out my PS3 the other day just so I could play skate again. I would even take a remastered skate for PS4 at this point.
it makes sense that it does some things better? skate 3 is from 2009. skater xl is from 2018 (early acces) but still Big fan of the channel bro! Er fra DK btw ;)
skate community would cancel animations from other tricks by moving the board immediately after the trick, which would carry the animation over to the next "animation-less" you do, i.e, nollie inward heal would poke the nose out, cancel it, add it to a kickflip. I suppose you call it an exploit but there WAS other ways to add some style to your tricks, what i've seen of skater XL (don't own it) it does a better job, but it's also brand new.
Hi, Great Videos about Skater XL:)))) About the game: i hope they add flatground mechanics for tricks like caspers and primoslides etc. it would be Sooo Awsome :)))
Go to the the subreddit r/projectsession and look for the post called "Tastey Treaser until further update" it's a short video showing a bit of an update on the whole look and feel of the game since the public and backer demos
Skate 3 is also made by a large AAA team with large amounts of funding, as opposed to skater xl's small indie team and smaller amount of funding. Hence the comparison was drawn bud :)
@@zacb7318 your point holds no weight. this game is still way too clunky. there is very little flow to the style of movement. it feels too static. 10 years later and id still rather play skate 3 than this or session
What about the late flips of objects? can you do that in Skater XL? you can in skate 3. I've also never tried that in XL, though it looks so good in 3.
I really miss Skate 3. It was such a killer game. I still have my PS3 disc version and was unable to play it on PS4 after my PS3 died because Sony fucked the dog and greedily decided not to include backwards compatability. Now that PS5 is out I'm finally able to play Skate 3 again, but now there's Skater XL (which I really hope is similar vis-a-vis flick controls,) and EA is developing Skate 4! However, I think we all know Skate 4 is going to be just overflowing with ridiculous in-game transactions and pay walls, knowing EA, and I can't bring myself to buy and support a game like that. I really hope EA doesn't just ruin my box with crawdads.
We always called the missed crooked grinds that end up as nose slides "Nixon slides". Named after Richard Nixon quote "I am not a crook!" lmao
thats hilarious dude
Gonna use this next time I miss a crook lol
This man
And 10 years old

Skate 3 has some animations that look better, but that’s because it’s a finished game so for me I can only wait to see skater XLs final product
Yeah, that might be a great game in future, for now is hurt to watch this stiff player animations and poorly transitions between animations
I think skate controls are really intuitive for skateboarders. Hope this game uses it or have an option to choose it.
Yeah but skate was never intended for pc and this game isnt intended for console its apples and oranges
a game coming 7 years later can only better otherwise its really a waste...

Skate 3 was also made by a AAA company, skater xl is made by a small indie team

Is this gonna be for ps4?
I like how you can tell when the character is skating switch even after pushes!!!!
I love skater xl, and I also love skate 3, but one main reason skater xl isn't on the same level as skate 3 is bc skater xl has none of the missions that skate 3 has, no find the spot, speed races, 1up, hall of meat. These are all things that turn the skate 3 mechanics useful and fun because it gives you more options in regards to what you want to play. Skater xl ONLY had that first L.A. skate spot, I understand they're still in early development, but skate 3 had a whole open world map with very high levels of details. I have played skate 3 for many years and each year I find more secret spots to skate. I love the way skater xl does the skating mechanics, seriously it's incredible, the flips, the catches, the versatility, and the only thing it's missing is some sort of missions to keep you playing, like the missions skate 3 had, and more spots to skate/a bigger map.
If the makers of skater xl, somehow managed to get to work with EA's large team, we could get the best of both worlds.
You know its not a completed game, right?
So cool someone is going to finally release a skateboarding game. Hopefully it is really good. It looks pretty sweet. I’m hoping they finally let us do a Darkside grind. Once a rare few game ever let us do that in game for some reason.
Will this game have multiplayer?
I have been playing skate for 10+ years, and i just bought skater xl after watching this. Very nice video nighspeeds :)
Cannot wait! Hey does all the gear / boards come with the game or is it a mod? Looks amazing...
Will this be available on Xbox one digital download at midnight the 28th?
Also, thanks for the motivation.
I got 2,000 subs in my first month already!
Didn't even know about this game until about 20 minutes ago. I was a MASSIVE fan of the Tony Hawk series, although I barely played much of the Skate games. I'll likely just go ahead and get this game now.
You're probably not gonna like it if you're not into ultra-realistic complicated controls. No button mashing here
Just picked this up after watching your video. Never really playes the Skate series but grew up playing Tony Hawk. I love this so far. The physics is really cool and the flow is dope, until you skate into something and crumple into a heap lol.
The two foot twin thumbstick controls take a little getting used to but i'm getting there. Pulling off grinds is super satisfying too. Looking forward to more content.
Things Skater XL does better
"... ok that looked weird let's try that again...
... that one clipped through my feet...
... ok that was weird..."
dont get me wrong the front foot and back foot catches and things skate didnt have are cool and all, but at this stage, skater XL is a mobile game i wouldn't want my child to play compared to skate 3. the title is more click bait than fact.
You can do transition grinds in skate 3 you need to move your right stick left or right in board slides in different slides
u def cant do a 5-0 to switch crook without popping in skate 3
Skate 3 is a old game and ea probably thought no one will care
Ollie South looks horrible in Skate 3
Ikr it’s so nasty the way his leg is bent. It looks like he’s trying to imitate a dog pissing lmao
ollie souths in general look horrible
@@Charlie-ql1dg naaah they got a ugly sorta beauty to em kinda like pressure flips imo. Ya boi gonna call you out for doin them but he's just mad cause he can't make em look good hahaha
Andrew Miller ive only seen one I thought looked good and it was with a fs Ollie in transition
I'm curious to see where they go with this. Bought it yesterday and it feels good but I can see it getting old if they don't have some kind of bigger map and story to use all of these tricks in, along with keeping the custom maps in. This is what I bought to partially satisfy my need for skate 4, I'm sure the devs understand what the fans are hoping for
How did you bend on the slide in Skater XL
what mod you use for that camera side change, please share it with me :)
Anton Deineko No mod just press right or left on the D Pad
But can u walk off and carry your board?
Any hope for flat land in a game like this? Also can we get acid drop hand flips
Can someone tell me what skater XL is?
Can you compare skater xl with skate 3s hard mode?
Empty Streets?
Don't Punsh NPC's?
Don't glitches?
Don't Bone Crashing?
Its not Skate 4
I just liked the aspect of doing whatever you want. Skate 3 wasn't just about skateboarding. The open world and people and cars made it so fun along with it's great areas to mess around on foot and on your board. While the skating is better, this still isn't a Skate 3 equivalent for me.
Yeah thats the main reason i played for hours
At first I was thinking I’m not gonna like this and then it grew on my a ton and I totally wanna get this now
Lemme save you all 15 minutes the answer is it does everything better except run on a console
I understand what you're saying but you also have to remember that skate 3 is 10 years old. For its time it was revolutionary. If this game or session didn't improve and become more realistic they wouldn't even exist. I just really hope these come out for console. I just busted out my PS3 the other day just so I could play skate again. I would even take a remastered skate for PS4 at this point.
how are you able to play early acces????
it makes sense that it does some things better? skate 3 is from 2009.
skater xl is from 2018 (early acces) but still
Big fan of the channel bro!
Er fra DK btw ;)
skate community would cancel animations from other tricks by moving the board immediately after the trick, which would carry the animation over to the next "animation-less" you do, i.e, nollie inward heal would poke the nose out, cancel it, add it to a kickflip. I suppose you call it an exploit but there WAS other ways to add some style to your tricks, what i've seen of skater XL (don't own it) it does a better job, but it's also brand new.
Is there high camera and low camera? From what I've seen so far there's only low camera
Hi, Great Videos about Skater XL:)))) About the game: i hope they add flatground mechanics for tricks like caspers and primoslides etc. it would be Sooo Awsome :)))
Is this game going to have objectives to complete like the skate series or is it just going to be a create a park game? Does anyone know?
Any news on session? I feel this game is blowing them out the way
Jay Staff I know hey , got dropped on Microsoft and then nothing
Early access is coming in Q3 of 2019
Go to the the subreddit r/projectsession and look for the post called "Tastey Treaser until further update" it's a short video showing a bit of an update on the whole look and feel of the game since the public and backer demos
I just want session to come to Xbox already. I’ve been playing skate 3 for so many years at this point and it’s time for something new.
@@mewxtwo I did I see the progression but still looks like it's got nothing on XL
I hope skate XL actually gets better animations and doesn't just become another project that was abandoned like some other games nowadays
I hope this game is coming out for ps4, we need a new skateboard game
op panda No cap!
It is
You’re comparing this to a 10 year old game? Skate 3 is way smoother than xl.
Wat tf else is he supposed to compare it to. Theres literally no other skate game that's good
Skate 3 is also made by a large AAA team with large amounts of funding, as opposed to skater xl's small indie team and smaller amount of funding. Hence the comparison was drawn bud :)
“You’re comparing this to a 10 year old game?” *proceeds to compare to a 10 year old game*
Notice how it is S T I L L B E T A
@@zacb7318 your point holds no weight. this game is still way too clunky. there is very little flow to the style of movement. it feels too static. 10 years later and id still rather play skate 3 than this or session
Im hyped for this as my ps3 stopped working a couple years back and EA have the business sense of a dead goldfish. SkaterXL on ps4
It would be nice to have a balance bar after difficult tricks...i think it would add to the realism.
What about the late flips of objects? can you do that in Skater XL? you can in skate 3. I've also never tried that in XL, though it looks so good in 3.
In skate 3 if there's a rail down stairs, if you nosegrind until the veryy end of the rail and let off. It'll glitch you to 100mph
Steezy crooked grinds are my favorite and Skate leaves me unfulfilled. I still love them though. HIT THAT GHETTO BIRD BABY!!!
Which should I buy
Things skate 3 does better than Skater XL: Wallies / Polejams / Wallrides
Does it slappy?
Dude ! This is exactly the video I was looking for. Thank you very much !
Oh boy, soon you can make a Skater XL vs Skate 4 video xD
I really miss Skate 3. It was such a killer game. I still have my PS3 disc version and was unable to play it on PS4 after my PS3 died because Sony fucked the dog and greedily decided not to include backwards compatability. Now that PS5 is out I'm finally able to play Skate 3 again, but now there's Skater XL (which I really hope is similar vis-a-vis flick controls,) and EA is developing Skate 4! However, I think we all know Skate 4 is going to be just overflowing with ridiculous in-game transactions and pay walls, knowing EA, and I can't bring myself to buy and support a game like that. I really hope EA doesn't just ruin my box with crawdads.
one thing i really don't like about skater xl is how the skater pushes. knees look like they're tied together then tweaks his head really weird
i cant connect to ea nation when i play skate 3 anymore :(
does anybody know how to fix because i wanna play with my friends i play xbox 1
You gotte log in
Do videos that compare all the grinds and slides on both games next ?
2:22 HE JUST BEEN LOLIPOPED
